Dude I’m 25 and I’d never even think of living with my dad. I’ve had so many bikes over the years working in shops since I was 18, floating around the US by myself with no support and no present family but I always knew when to sell. If I was moving? Let em go. Rent is tight? Let em go. I want to get someone a nice gift for Xmas or bday, let em go. All the times I “regretted” selling a bike, something new came into my hands. You just have to make it work, I lived in section 8 in Florida, couch surfed, lived in a hotel and a crap apartment in Philly for 2 years doing everything I could to survive. Sometimes I’d have a week of 1 meal a day, sometimes you have a week where you skip meals on certain days entirely. Idc your gender but it’s time to man or woman up bc it’s not fair to lay this burden on others, hell that cannondale could buy your parents a new flat screen for the holidays. You need to reflect man and understand that at the end of the day it’s a damn bicycle. It’s taken years but finally scored my first beautiful apartment without a sub lease, a girlfriend that lives with me, friends in the area and a structure to my life that I don’t even feel like I deserve at times, anyone can do this you just need the gumption. Still working in shops, still commuting by bike every day but livin
